Default Would You Allow Anyone To Fill Your Tank For You?

Ran into an odd situation a few weeks ago. I pulled into a gas station in small town to the south of where I live to get some gas. I stopped at a pump and was approached by a young woman (17-18) who told me it was "full service day" at the gas station as part of some sort of a charity event. She asked if she could fill my tank. There were 4-5 other young people standing around waiting to dispense gas at the other pumps. I declined and explained to her that filling a motorcycle tank was not the same as filling a car tank. She stated that she had been told that by many other riders. I was not about to see a gas shower today.

Anyone here allow a non-rider to fill their tank?

I could never see a circumstance where I would allow someone else to fill my tank.
